Chapter Seventy-Two: Havoc on Elam Road (1)
Outside the Elland Road Stadium, day. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
By this time, fans in white Leeds United shirts had already gathered outside the stadium to welcome the team's arrival of another home game. As the opponent of this game is the bitter enemy Manchester United, the Leeds United fans at this time are undoubtedly more excited than usual, singing, dancing and shouting loudly, and the atmosphere is very enthusiastic.
In front of the cameras of reporters and the media, they all blushed and exposed their muscles, and shouted the slogan of slaughtering Manchester United viciously. That vicious look, looking like it's almost like swallowing Manchester United in one bite.
Originally, given the popularity of the match between Manchester United and Leeds United, there were many media and reporters who would have come to the scene to report. And this time, I don't know if it's because of the service gang's impact on Manchester United's bus, this time it's extraordinarily much.
Even over the Elland Road Stadium, helicopters from broadcasters such as Sky Sports and the BBC were spotted to broadcast live. With such a grand spectacle, it is almost like a Champions League final is about to start, rather than an ordinary Premier League match.
In this fiery scene, there is a lot of police and security personnel. In order to avoid violent clashes, the FA and the police have put a lot of effort into preventing them. Not only has the security level for the match been raised to the highest level, but the sale of alcoholic beverages has also been banned around the Elland Road Stadium.
Finally, in order to maximize the separation between Leeds United and Manchester United fans and prevent them from having the opportunity to confront each other, security has even temporarily set up a temporary entry time for fans of both sides at different times, and Manchester United fans are required to check in after Leeds United fans have entered.
It is said that the rule will cause United fans to miss out on meeting the United bus outside the Elland Road stadium, which has been opposed by almost all Manchester United fans who come to follow the United in the Elland Road stadium.
After all, the people who can come to Elland Road without fear are the most courageous Manchester United fans, even if they are small, they are not afraid to face a large number of Leeds United fans in Leeds.
However, the FA and the local police in Leeds insisted on it, and also publicly stated that if Manchester United fans did not abide by this rule, they would eventually refuse these Manchester United to enter the Elland Road stadium and arrange for them to watch live TV in the local temporary Manchester United fan bar.
In such a situation, no matter how reluctant Manchester United fans are, they can only reluctantly give in in order to be able to enter the Elland Road stadium to cheer for the team.
Of course, it is not without Manchester United fans who are still disobedient and trying to take advantage of the loopholes and avoid the FA and Leeds police. It's just that the vast majority of them have not escaped the security of the upgraded Elland Road Stadium.
As for the few other real Manchester United fans who were lucky enough to pass, the final result was generally not very good.
For example, at this time, a young white man who was wearing a white Leeds United autumn shirt came to Leeds United fans alone, and after reaching the Leeds United fans alone, he lifted his hands up and took off the white jersey on the outside, revealing the red Manchester United jersey inside.
Then, in a dead manner, he raised his right fist and shouted, "There is only one Busby!" ”
Such a deadly act like a "shouting to shoot at me" made his surroundings immediately surrounded by a panting, red-faced Leeds man, who was furious, and looked like we wanted a group of people to kill you alone.
The main reason the young United fan did this may have been to be cool so that he could have a really good talking point in front of the rest of the United fans in the future, but he clearly underestimated how much the Leeds fans hated him.
In the long history of feuds between Leeds United and Manchester United, this entanglement occurred in January 1994. At the time, a minute of silence was held in almost every England stadium to commemorate the passing of Manchester United's legendary godfather, Sir Busby, but Elland Road was not one of them.
Hundreds of Leeds United fans gathered at Elland Road to chant "There's only one Don Leeve!" for their hero, legendary Leeds manager Don Reevie, England's famous anti-Manchester United fighter at the time, on this day of Sir Busby's remembrance. ”
Such an idea of disrespecting the dead and violating basic human morality naturally aroused overwhelming criticism from the mainstream public opinion of the outside world at that time. It was not only Manchester United who was furious about this, but even the chairman and manager of Leeds United at the time, and even Elsie, the widow of Don Rivy, publicly expressed strong opposition to this.
Among them, Elsie even commented publicly, saying: "Even if her husband is alive, the extreme actions of the fans will make him panic." ”
Leeds United fans are naturally inappropriate, but everything is always a slap in the face.
The reason why they did this was not only to protest that Don Reevy did not receive the official memorialization of Sir Busby when his death was not commemorated like Sir Busby, but also to avenge the revenge of Manchester United fans at the time.
It turned out that when Don Levy was the head coach of the England national team during his lifetime, the Leeds United legend was subjected to a violent upheaval from all over England at the time due to poor results.
Among them, the fans of Manchester United, who are Leeds United's sworn enemies, naturally did not let go of this great opportunity to ridicule their sworn enemies. They directly referred to Don Revy in public with the disrespectful phrase "that shit", which almost caused a massive violent clash between fans on both sides at the time.
In England, there is no such thing as retribution, and this grievance has been written into the more than 30-year-old feud between Manchester United and Leeds United, and it is often mentioned today.
It can be said that every time Sir Busby and Don Reevy commemorate the day comes, it is a time when there is a high level of conflict between Leeds United fans and Manchester United fans.
From this, it can be seen what kind of death it is for this young Manchester United fan to dare to shout "there is only one Busby" outside the Elland Road stadium and among Leeds United fans.
And, very quickly, he paid for it.
Thin and thin, he was soon caught up in the moissage of Leeds United fans, and if it weren't for the security personnel on one side to rescue him from the angry Leeds United fans, he would have to spend at least a few days in the hospital.
However, even so, when he was pulled out of the security guards, his face was already blue and purple, with two nosebleeds, his face was pale, and his jersey was torn out of the east and west, which was very pitiful and embarrassed.
Such a clash at the scene is naturally indispensable for the participation of the media and journalists, and the entire process of the clash has been recorded by them.
Among them, Lineker, who sat in the live commentary seat and watched the live broadcast screen, said: "This is the reason why this league is so hot, the direct dialogue between Manchester United and Leeds United, no matter when, anywhere, will be a tragic war!" It may not be a derby, but it represents hatred! Unresolvable hatred!! ...”
And when the Manchester United bus slowly drove into the Elland Road stadium surrounded by police cars, this hatred completely turned into a boiling volcano and erupted.
At this time, the curtains of the windows of the Manchester United bus were still closed, and there was a sense of oppression and darkness in the bus. Then, soon Li Lei and the others heard a loud slapping sound of "popping" from outside the bus, and a vicious roar that was almost like a curse.
Fortunately, this time, thanks to the ample security force, the window breaking did not happen again.
But even so, at this moment, the bus was filled with an eerie silence that a hot war was coming.
Although Kean and the others all sat quietly in their seats and didn't say a word, Li Lei could feel the sense of urgency from them, the restlessness and excitement that they forcibly suppressed, just waiting for the opportunity to suddenly erupt.
Feeling this addictive feeling, Li Lei felt the aggressive blood in his body rushing wildly again. But in reality, he is not Manchester United's starting goalkeeper yet, which makes him feel uncomfortable at the moment, as if there are countless ants crawling in his heart, tearing his heart.
He had a strong feeling in his heart that if he couldn't play in this game, he would die.
But his "resentful" eyes did not get the slightest response from Ferguson. The old Scottish man was scribbling around in his notebook, and he didn't have time to pay attention to him.
When Manchester United's bus finally escaped the frenzied entanglement of Leeds United fans and drove into the Elland Road parking lot at a turtle speed, the Manchester United players were frantically questioned by a swarm of reporters who had already set up their guns and short guns.
Relying on the advantage of the home field, many of them are Leeds United's local media.
In a situation like this, you can't expect them to ask as many questions as the players are comfortable with.
Among them, Ferdinand, who switched from Elland Road to Old Trafford and is regarded as Judas by Leeds United fans, and Li Lei, who had just joined the service gang the day before, naturally became the most attacked.
"Leo, how does it feel to be back at Elland Road? Do you regret your betrayal? ”
"Leo, what do you think about Leeds United fans calling you Judas?"
"Lee, tell me, have you dealt with a lot of these conflicts in the gang?"
"Lee, tell me about that conflict."
"Lee, do you still have any contact with the former gangsters?"
......
If the question about Ferdinand is to expose people's old scars, then the question about Li Lei is completely directly attacked.
These questions, no matter which one Li Lei answers, no matter how he answers, are not right, and they will make the gangster aura on his body heavier and heavier. From this point of view, these local reporters in Leeds really don't have any good intentions.
Fortunately, Li Lei would not have paid attention to them, and he would not have cared about it in his heart. The way to deal with it is also simple, just ignore it as before.
I don't know if I saw him about to walk into the player's tunnel, but he didn't say a word, he was in a hurry, and just as he was about to walk into the passage, a's ugly voice suddenly sounded.
"Hey, hey, yellow-skinned kid, tell me, you're not scared, are you?"
Such a racist question finally made Li Lei stop, turn around sharply, and look back. But there were so many people that he couldn't find anyone at all.
On the other side, seeing that Li Lei finally stopped and turned around, as if he was going to have some response, the reporters who had been disappointed became excited again, and the lights flashed again.
Seeing the excited reporters, Li Lei was not interested in continuing to look for them.
I saw that he had a sneer on his face, his eyes were unruly, and under the baptism of the flashing lights, his heart was boiling with war, and he suddenly waved his right hand, and made a knife in his palm, made a downward decapitation action, and slashed it fiercely.
It's like an executioner!
Ruthless decapitation!!
Then, in an incredible exclamation, he turned neatly and walked away, leaving only a tall figure.
Like a sword!
Like a gun!!
